?? 6 or 12 VOLT BATTERY ??
Should I go with 6 volt or 12 volt batteries? Either way I will be converting battery power to AC power via an inverter. Which voltage is better?

A small cabin is a little different then an RV.
I would install two systems. A 12 volt system and a 120 volt system.
Run standard NM type wiring for both, then when and if commercial power becomes available it would be easy to change out. Use separate boxes for the systems
Buy a standard RV power distribution panel and converter. Power from the genset would feed the panel into the 120 volt portion and power the converter.
You can then use basic LP appliances with 12 volt control for the refer and furnace. Lighting would be 12 volt.
