You can limit your exports list to only hosts you wish to mount the shares. If you're concerned the router is tracking traffic in transit, that's a larger issue anyway. In my own lab, I have my own router handling the networking and the ISP router only handles the traffic into and out of the network.
I'm not sure I follow how you have it set up. What is the need for NFS shares if you're using sshfs?
Either way, though, use what works for you! I have done both. With sshfs, you get the benefit of encryption, even with your network. I think NFS is easier to manage. They both have benefits.
