We keep our trailer outside next to the garage, as you can see in my signature below, about 10-12' from where the electric service panel is inside the garage where I will plug it in from time to time, mostly for lights etc. Haven't tried the microwave, fridge or AC yet.
Just look at the breaker that supplies the outlets in question. It will be a 15 or 20 amp circuit and that's you're limit. Plenty to run most of the small loads in the trailer but running an AC or microwave could be problematic.
