Pop-up Trailer Batteries

Hey everyone, I need some advice. I have a pop up trailer we use for camping, usually with no hookups) and it needs a new battery. I'm planning to get a Costco marine/dual purpose since our demands aren't too heavy. I have a 100 (maybe) watt panel I use to keep the battery full and we really only use it for the water system and charging phones. The trailer doesn't have an inverter so I have a Honda EU2000 for 120v which I also use to boost the battery as needed.

My main question is for storage, what is a good solution to keep the battery as good as possible for as long a possible? The trailer is stored away from a plug so no 120v battery maintainers will work. Do the 2.5 to 5 watt solar battery maintainers work? And are they going to overcharge the battery?

Any info you can share would be great, thanks!

Agreed, 100wt panel, just be sure to get a SCC with user programmable features to match your batteries' needs.
