As a past used camper dealer, RV user of forty years, and a retired electrical engineer, I can say without hesitation that what are known as and called "30 Amp RV's" (unlike some bigger rigs that may be 50 amp 4 wire) indeed "typically" use three conductor 10 gauge copper rubber covered Power Cords. Also, 25 feet is a reasonable length cord you would find on a 30 amp RV. The 30 amp 120 Volt RV plugs are 3 terminal (1 Ungrounded Conductor(HOT), 1 Grounded Conductor (Neutral), 1 Equipment Grounding Conductor)
NOTE: This assumes you need a cord for "120 V 30 amp" AS YOU STATED
NOTE: Inside the RV distribution panel YOU DO NOT BOND NEUTRAL TO GROUND, their busses are kept separate and electrically isolated and insulated off each other.
If voltage drop were an issue (some RV parks are notorious about low voltage at the pedestal) you could always use bigger wire
Sure Camping World and Adventure RV etc and others sell all you want, but I have seen good prices at Menards.

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
