We are on Vancouver Island right now and wished we had spent our whole vacation here. Our trip was the reverse of yours seeing Radium Hot Springs, Banff, Lake Louise, Revelstoke and Vancouver first. There is a lot of space between sites and a lot of sight seeing.
On Vancouver Island we are staying at Living Forest Oceanside in Nanaimo, BC. It is the best campground we have stayed at in all of our years of camping. If you are interested it is best to make reservations although at the time of the year you are going it may not be necessary especially if it is not on a weekend. We are coming back and spending a couple of months on the island.
Note if you have an RV the BC ferries charge $6.10 per foot for each foot over 20 foot (motor home + toad or tow vehicle + camper); however, on Wed and Saturday after 4:00 it is reduced to $2.00 per foot. Make reservations for the reservable sites or show up early.
Hope you have as much fun as we are having.
