Its likely safe because the camps breakers will not let you overamp their system.
Camps are wired in 2 ways, the old 'spider' system in which each pedestal is individually cabled to the master panel and its breakers there.
Newer camps may have 'loop' cabling which has master breakers sized to the cabling and maximum load at the distribution panel with individual panels controlled by breaker sizing in them. Both are NEC approved.
What you are suggesting to do with multiple connections into a single power point will not give you a higher voltage unless the ped. is wired with L1 & L2, 120v. each. Most 30 amp ped's are L1 only.
You cannot draw a higher amperage from the pedestal than its breakers allow at either location.
Talk to the camp staff and your electrician about using combination devices.

OP is just wanting to plug his 50A TT into a 15A outlet using 2 adapters and his power cord.
