Don't let the batteries get to low. Run the generator on high speed. That is to say, do not use the Economy mode to start off. Be sure the refer and hot water heater are on propane. You will hear the generator working hard if the batteries are low. After 30 minutes go ahead and push the Economy button. If the generator does not slow down it is still charging hard. Eventually you will hear it slow down and that will give you a bit of sense of the state of charge.
Run for a couple hours in the morning and a couple in the evening. As suggested, a decent size solar panel is a big help.
I have used the 1000W honda on my 40 foot diesel pusher. I can turn the charging system way down but using the quiet honda is nice versus the onboard generator. Put the generator behind a tree or a box with the exhaust pointed away for better noise reduction.
