Hi all, thanks in advance for all your help.
We have decided to build a Gravel pad for our new hot tub and would love to know step by step how to go about this. Having never done this befor I feel very confident I can do it, I would just love to draw on anyone who has done it.
Not sure how deep to dig?, what type of gravel ? do i need to pack it down ? How do I tell if its level ? I was thinking of putting
2 by 6 planks of wood to hold it all in.
Anyway if any of u have gone though this we would be very grateful for your insight.
Again thanks so much

Personally, I prefer gravel, mixed with sand, cement, and a little water

You can make a box with 2 x 6's and just fill it in with gravel. The boards keep the gravel from washing out. Use a level on a straight board to level it. It doesn't need to be perfect.
Good luck!
