But to answer your question: Yes, I've had and have above ground pools, yes they are a lot of work, and yes site preparation is the most important step.

Another thing to consider is the pool will be the least of the expense if you want one that folks will enjoy for years. The deck should be your primary focus. 

Previous owner built a VERY nice complete wrap around deck for ours, and added a seating area a step below the main deck.  He kept it really well sealed, and I do the same.  It's over 20 years old and still looks good.
