Why think only about a generator? Solar recharging isn’t experimental or a toy. Most days you’ll be completely recharged with adequate system...batteries, controller, solar panels and properly sized wire. Start with an energy survey to determine your amp hour needs.
I agree with the above. One consideration if you do plan to use solar is that using solar with a residential refrigerator limits your camp sites to those with sufficient sun to recharge the batteries. If you prefer heavily forested camp sites, that could be an issue at certain times during the season even with the most efficient residential refrigerators.
