The BIG List of RV Campsites (with Full Hookups) on Vancouver Island – Part Two

Feb 9, 2022

Welcome to Part Two of our BIG list! Planning an RV trip on Vancouver Island and trying to figure out where to stay? To help you make your decision, we’ve put together a list of all the full-hookup RV sites we could find, with contact info and links to their websites, if they have one. All sites listed have at least some full-service RV sites (best to reserve ahead to make sure you get one.)

Because Vancouver Island has such a wealth of camping locations, this is a BIG list, and we have broken it into two parts. Part One is a list of campsites in the South and Mid-Island, while Part Two will highlight campsites on the West Coast of the Island, as well as the Comox Valley and North Island. Click the links below to skip to the area you’re looking for:
