    I have had a very good experience in my time at North Beach. Many things have exceeded my expectations. It it obvious that ownership continues to fund operations and capital purchases / repairs. There is good value in living here.

      I don't know why you want 200 characters here before you even get to the survey to ask specific questions. It's too much and makes me not want to take surveys. Filling up the next 20 characters so I can move on

                                                  It's been great so far. I love the amenities and the staff is nice. I just wish the pool was kept cleaner. A lot of debris has been in there since summer started and it doesn't seem to be cleaned that often.
