50 to 30 to 15 amps

Was at Camping World recently where I saw a travel trailer on their showroom with what looked like its 50 amp cord, with a reducer to 30 amps and another reducer that was then plugged into a regular wall outlet.

We'll be moving from our home soon so I do not want to install a 50 amp breaker and associated receptacle so is there anything wrong with using a similar set up? I realize I will need to limit the load to under 15 amps but that should keep a trickle charge on the batteries. I am not running the A/C or really anything else except the DC controls and the fridge (running on propane).

my rv sits in a bldg plugged into a 20amp 120v outlet . I can run everything but not all at one time, no problem. I use the pig tail 30amp to 120v plug
