Yes.... there is a lot to see and do on the 500 mile journey from Vancouver to Jasper. If you let us know what you are interested in, I'm sure there will be lots of people ready to help out.
Also, I'd expect the trip to take at least 10 hours in a motorhome. For that reason alone, you likely want to make a stop along the way. Kamloops is about half-way.
Another option might be to head through the Okanagan and stop somewhere around Kelowna. It's further than the direct route but it might be something you want to see depending upon your interests. A warning though - it is VERY busy there in the summer.
Does CanaDream have all the sites prebooked for you? If so, you will need earplugs for the campground at Lake Louise. It's right beside the busy train tracks.
This is a beautiful drive though. Good way to see the highlights of Western Canada.
