You're going to get tired of hauling waste tank to the campground...you should come up with a permanent solution for the blackwater.
You can build a septic system. It won't need to be as large as a home setup. With a macerator pump you can send the black water far enough away to keep the waste from affecting a water source.
Same with the grey water.. I used a long sewer hose to get it far away from the RV. The hose connected to a 50 gallon drum that I buried with the bottom removed and sitting on a bed of gravel.
