1. An extra 30 amp heavy duty extension power cord. You may not need it for quite a few trips, but at some point, you will need it, and you can find the best price by searching for it ahead of time.
2. Extra sewer hose, unless you already have about 25' or so.
3. Whatever product you want to use to in the black tanks. I suggest the stuff that is formaldehyde free.
4. You may want to consider getting a really good surge protector that will protect you against low or high voltage, improperly grounded power supply and power surges. Expensive....over $200 but cheaper than replacing/repairing your AC unit, refridgerator circuit board, television, etc. I'll confess that I just bought one this year and have been camping since 1984. However if you research the topic, quite a few people have had bad experiences with poor power supplies at campgrounds.
I bought the Progressive 30 amp portable model:

As for the rest of what you may need, make your first trip out to a place near a shopping area where you could get anything you really need to continue that campout. Some stuff you will discover will be things that you would like to have, but not need immediately.
