Just a guess based on your intended use (2 days/3 nights max per week, couple hours of TV a night, minimal lighting or LED lights) with trailer parked in relatively good sun.

less than $500 all in cost with self install.
A 30watt system is not much more than a battery maintainer (in fact 30 watt solar is what I use as a battery maintainer on my boat)
