Sounds like a good plan. Since you can't see too far on the one side I'd do a very short and noninvasive scout around it. If you're buck hunting I'd look for a faint trail heading into the pines. Or even some big tracks around the creek. Set up on it a little off the fork with a good wind and see what happens. 5 acres is plenty of enough room for a smart buck to get in and out of undetected. Good luck!
