You are finding that using 30 amp service with a 50 amp RV is a pain. Thats because in my opinion it is a pain.
I avoid 30 amp sites for this reason. Too many limitations.
Practice energy management techniques and you'l be fine, nevertheless it's still a pain. You'll learn to avoid 30 amp sites when possible
There are still many 30 amp RV. parks out there, probably more than 50 amp.
This problem is easily fixed by turning your fridge and water heater to propane leaving you those 15 to 20 amps for other items. When you are at a 30 amp site.
Problem solved.
