recently, I had installed an above ground 12 foot diameter pool. the grass has been killed off around the surrounding area, and I have only had time to put a few potted tropical plants in places.
I wont be doing any major work now with summer almost over, but I want to design over the winter something nice to do for next year. A running deck even to the top of the pool isnt an option. but what about one that is 1 foot off the ground? so that it could be walked on, have pool toys sit there and that way my kids and i dont have to walk in the mud around it?
should it be wood or some other material? wood seems like high maintenance. I guess I could just build a landscaping bed but it might get ruined with too muich water when it splashes out and it drains when i clean it once a month.
thank you for any suggestions.:)
one thing you might consider is a cool deck this is a deck that no matter how hot it gets this deck will not burn your feet.they do work i have been on them bare footed. and you can have any color you want owner of pool company for eleven years.

The absence of chlorine, or any chemicals for that matter, appealed to Adler, who admits that the eco-friendly concept of the natural pool fit into her earth-conscience lifestyle. “I try to make choices based on how good they are for the environment,” she says. “And honestly, I can’t understand why you’d want any other kind of pool.”
About the mosquito breeding ground. it would not happen in this environment as mosquito’s require stagnant water to breed. The constant circulation would eliminate most, if not all of the problem. There would be about as much breeding here as there would be in a normal pool. These are great, if I was going to get a pool a natural one it would be.
