The transfer switch sounds like the best idea to me. Another concern is someone losing shore power and then hooking the second cable up to their generator. If they don't disconnect from the pedestal they will be back feeding power to the system. At best your genny will be fully loaded because it's trying to supply everyone else that lost power. At worst it could kill the electrician trying to fix the problem that resulted in your lost shore power in the first place.
Rather than adding a second shore power input, I suggest you see if you can move the one you have closer to the generator.
