Is there some sort of accumulator system I can set up to compensate for my campground's poor city water pressure?

Yes, there are accumulator systems that you can set up to compensate for poor city water pressure at your campground.

An accumulator system is a device that stores pressurized water in a tank, which helps to maintain a consistent flow of water at a steady pressure. It works by using a diaphragm or bladder inside the tank that separates the water from a pressurized air chamber. As water is pumped into the tank, the diaphragm or bladder compresses the air, creating pressure that helps to maintain a consistent flow of water.

To set up an accumulator system, you will need an accumulator tank, a pressure switch, and some plumbing fittings. You will need to install the accumulator tank in your RV's water system, typically near the water pump. The pressure switch will need to be wired into the electrical system so that it can turn the water pump on and off as needed.

Once the accumulator system is set up, it will help to maintain a steady flow of water at a consistent pressure, even if the campground's water pressure is low. This can be particularly helpful if you are running multiple appliances or fixtures that require a lot of water, such as a shower or washing machine.

Keep in mind that while an accumulator system can help to compensate for poor water pressure, it won't necessarily increase the overall water flow rate. It's also important to make sure that your RV's plumbing system is in good condition and free of leaks, as leaks can significantly reduce water pressure and flow.

Exactly!  The OP already has an accumulator tank, it is the RV fresh water tank.

That's the obvious solution, not only for pressure but for supply.
