The spa step unit includes a wooden frame structure having an upper frame surface with deck planking secured thereto. The deck planking is sized to conform and fit around a portion of the spa. The step unit includes a thin-walled C-shaped border channel of a plastic material having an upright web with upper and lower flanges extending therefrom. The border channel is secured to the frame structure to form a load-bearing boundary portion of the frame. The deck planking is secured to the upper flange of the border channel to provide a spa step unit having an aesthetically pleasing appearance. A method is also provided of manufacturing the spa step unit.
