For your 2020 Subaru WRX I recommend the EcoHitch part # 306-X7257 as it has plenty of towing capacity for your camper but also because it's only option that fits behind the rear bumper panel of your vehicle for a concealed look and also better ground clearance. See attached picture and install video for more info.
For trailer wiring then the Tekonsha kit part # 118768 is the best option as it's very easy to install and comes with a very reliable converter box.
Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
