A much cheaper solution would be a generator and some long cords. If all the folks have hybrid inverter chargers then overload is probably not an issue. I would choose a 7000 watt inverter generator.
BTW I prefer to run my RV 100% electrically including heating, cooking, and water heating. Since I got my generator replaced (the last one grew wings) I've run it for 18.5 hours (July 20, 2017 to Sept 22, 2017).

I have not considered running an A/C with it, as this is more of a campsite item, where multiple people in a camp would be using this, not just me. Where this will come in handy will be in cooler weather to power things like Keurig coffee makers, microwaves, and cooking appliances, this will provide the ability to actually cook on electric without the need for a noisy generator, and with enough panel capacity, especially with five days sitting unused in Texas.
Forklift batteries have not been mentioned, just because of the bulk. However, with my use for a camp at festivals where this is a static item, it just might be my ideal for what I'm looking for. Eventually, when I can get some acreage, it also might be able to handle power for a cabin with ease.
