At Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park near Carmel, officials plan a new service this fall so visitors can view an individual campsite online while making a reservation.
The sneak-peek service is an innovation for the state Department of Parks and Recreation. Currently, you cannot request a specific site or see it before you book at www.reserveamerica.com.
Also, next year officials plan to relocate 218 sites from old-growth redwood forest to a less environmentally sensitive spot and add parking and improve bridges. State parks supervisor Dana Jones expects no camp closures during the work.
The 1,006-acre park is famous for hiking trails with spectacular ocean views.
