You would be much better off with a propane refrigerator.
That is debatable ! You could be in big trouble if you run out of propane and there is no refill station nearby.
With adequate solar and batteries a 12V compressor refrigerator is far superior to any propane evaporative refrigerator, especially when the outside temps are in the 80s or above.
I certainly would have a generator, even a 2000W portable. Also a DC-DC charger.
I think you'd really have to be asleep at the wheel if you run out of propane. With 2-7.5 gallon tanks, I've gone 30 days with no fill ups and using the water heater too. No furnace for that thirty days though. I'd be thinking in a thirty day period one should be able to come across some propane to fill the tanks.
More like the typical "sky could fall" post in virtually every thread on here.
And, I man, yeah, like, a DC fridge is totally more reliable, if you forget to refill your propane for like 3 months, as long as you carry 2 generators and a DC-DC charger!
