Best campground for a giant MH in Banff
I'm considering going to Banff in July or August and would like some insights into how to pick the best place to stay. I understand it is very competitive at that time of year and I'd like to do ever...

Either tunnel mountain trailer court or tunnel mountain village 2will be the best right in Banff park. The trailer court has full hook ups and no fire pits. Village 2 electric only and some have fire pits. Village 2 is kinda laid out like parralel parking and you get about 60 feet of stall length if I had to guess. The trailer court side has some that have two sites in the little pull outs and some singles. With a unit that size you will need one of the singles.
Canyon rv resort in radium bc is a beautiful place to stop in that part of the country. About 1.5hours from Banff.
In jasper, I think the largest sites are the full hook up ones in the whistlers campground. I love that campground. There is a koa in Hinton that might have larger accommodations, but it is about a 45minute drive or more from any of the jasper attractions. If you are okay with boondocking the snaring river overflow site is a huge open parking lot with some great mountain views.
For anything right in the national parks you must reserve through the parks Canada reservation system. Popular campgrounds fill fast for popular dates. Booking for the year opens sometime in January, there will be a notice on the site saying which day for which park. If you are going on a weekend in July I recommend booking Immediately after the booking system opens for the year. I use google earth combined with the pics parks Canada gives to compare stalls for size etc. One park even you could even go through on google street view, I don’t remember which.
I camp in these parks 10-20nights a year, if you need anymore info please ask.
