As far as the setup for the cabin, you need to start by calculating your daily kWh usage.... it can get very expensive quickly to be totally off grid.
Feel free to call or text me if you’re interested in one of the pumps. 325-305-6064

For what you want you are probably better off running a generator... Maybe look into a propane system and build your cabin as efficient as possible.... Keeping a typical hunting cabin cool in Texas summer heat will not be easy... Keep the generator far away or get a Honda investor type one and you won't hear it...
