Some thoughts;
If you use a 1 ton van and a travel trailer, you have a vehicle to use for sightseeing and errands after you set up camp. (This is exactly why I have a travel trailer and not a motorhome.) The van also gives everybody a safe place to ride.
If you go with a motorhome, what is your camping style? Will you want to poke around the area and explore? Or do you like to stay put and hike or read? If you like to wander around, you will either have to break camp every time you head out, or have a tow vehicle. If you have another vehicle, somebody can drive it behind the motorhome, offering more safe and comfortable seats.
My own family does a big campout once a year. We siblings have our own rigs, and we use my parent's motorhome for the family gathering. We have our own space and sleeping arrangements, plus additional kitchen space to put together family dinners. It works really well.
