Waites Landing, conveniently located just off Falmouth Foreside, is perhaps the most desirable waterfront neighborhood in greater Portland and hosts some of the finest estates on Casco Bay. The Foreside is among Maine's oldest maritime communities. The area offers expansive deep-water anchorages of the Portland Yacht Club and Handy Boat Marina, and the Gilsland Farm Sanctuary, home of the Maine Audubon Society. The town is home to three golf clubs including the Portland Country Club, The Woodlands Club, and extensive tennis, sailing and sporting facilities. The Payson Cottage is a convenient five miles from Portland, its cultural, business and transportation amenities.
Historic Portland supports a dynamic arts community, including the Portland Museum of Art, symphony, ballet, theatre and popular entertainment venues. Fine dining, artisan bakeries and merchant offerings enhance the quality of life for the residents. Falmouth Foreside is serviced by Portland's International Jetport and Boston's Logan International, two hours by auto and rail.
