There is another way to do this installing the second 9000 to 11000 BTU air conditioner on the roof or adding a stand alone 8000 portable AC unit near the window if you have the room. Have these wired to a 20AMP receptacle on the outside of the trailer and hook-up to the camp ground provided 20AMP service.
This second A/C unit would be easier to run from a single 2KW Honda type generator as well if nothing else was on wiring inside your trailer.

We use the camp ground 20-AMP SERVICE alot when we are at the electric camp grounds. Especially when we use our oil-filled heaters and all of the outside activity where 120VAC power is needed. The 20AMP Service form the camp ground has its own circuit breaker and doesn't pull from our 30AMP Service hookup.
Just a couple of other ideas for you....
