We have an Intex 13x36'' AG metal-frame pool....I thought it would be a good introductory pool to teach us pool maintenance, teach the kids how to handle the water, etc...before deciding on a more permanent pool situation.
Set-up went well, we love the pool, maintenance has been a breeze thus far...but I'm really annoyed & bothered by the "ugly" factor...the splash out that occasionally happens is leaving our rather sparse yard a muddy, wet mess....so the obvious answer would be landscaping; however, I'm concerned that gravel or mulch will come into contact with the pool and cause leaks/holes, etc...
Has anyone done any type of landscaping around this kind of pool? Sand is not an option due to the legs.
Thanks!
