Other than some sort of emergency I can't imagine any EV owner going to an RV park to charge on a level 2 charger. A level 3 DC fast charger is a MUCH better and probably 5 to 50 times faster.
As indicated earlier basic EV charging services can be offered with zero investment. Its a no brainer for a campground owner to take advantage of that.

No. You misunderstand. The infrastructure is already there. The EVer already has all the equipment. He just plugs into the existing available receptacle. This already happens now. In my experience it’s either the EV or RV but not both at the same time. Not a perfect solution. But allows the campground owner to provide a basic charging service with zero investment. It’s just a simple upcharge on the site. Works well although there are obviously limitations and not all RVers are okay with dry camping for the first night. For us it’s not a big deal. But I’m sure it would depend on the rig, climate, personalities etc.
Cheers.
