You need 30 amp breaker to match your panel, a 30a rv receptacle and box,and guessing at 25' of 4 conductor # 10 wire. Then add labor and any permit costs if applicable. Most electricians will offer a free estimate for that type work.

Why 4 conductor for 120v 30A outlet?
Hot, Neutral and ground. What is #4 wire for?
