There are many signal boosters/amplifiers on the market check out this Google search for starters.
Even with a strong signal your bandwidth will be limited by what the campground provides and the other users you will be sharing with (everyone else in the park). We get around this with Verizon Jetpack (or MiFi depending on when you buy it). This is a little box, smaller than a mobile phone which uses the data side of the signal and provides a wifi hotspot in your coach. The cost is about $100 one time and a monthly fee for data. You can opt for 2, 4, or more gigabytes per month. I suspect you could get by with 2 or even 1 if they go that low and have them notify you if you are going to exceed it so you can increase it. I'm guessing it will run about $40 a month. Not cheap but it provides a private, secure signal in your coach anyplace you have Verizon phone service.
I imagine ATT and others offer a similar service, but I know about Verizon since I am a customer.
