14/3 will be sufficient. The outlet will be a standard NEMA 5-15 rated
15A maximum and the house will be wired with 14 gauge wire on a 15A
fuse or breaker. Therefore, it's highly unlikely that anything heavier
than a 14 gauge extension cord will be required. (The lower the gauge,
the thicker the wire.)
