Cumberland Crossing by OceanView at Falmouth
Beautiful cottages just off the Maine coast
Picture life in a tranquil glen between the mountains and the sea, just minutes from the cosmopolitan charms of a coastal city. Picture living in a green-designed cottage home built with your special touches. Now surround it with friendly neighbors and all the benefits, amenities, and care offerings of a full-service retirement community.
Here’s where it all comes together.

Residents at Cumberland Crossing have the benefit of access to a wellness office with a Registered Nurse and a complimentary annual health review. That office maintains and updates a File of Life for every resident.
Residents also enjoy the assurance of knowing that, should life circumstances change, they will receive priority access to Falmouth House Assisted Living or Legacy Memory Care; both of these highly rated residential offerings are situated on the OceanView campus. Each offers private, modern accommodations in a beautiful setting and are staffed by a team of skilled, experienced, and deeply committed caregivers.
There’s a reason why vacationers return to the Maine coast year after year. It’s the same reason why we Mainers remain so proud and true to our beautiful state. Here in Cumberland, the air is clear, the forests are unspoiled, and the coast is minutes away. Mountains and lakes are nearby. And the cultural treasures and culinary pleasures of Portland are less than a half-hour away by car.
Closer yet are the rustic charms of Cumberland itself with its agricultural history and small-town character.
The Cumberland Crier – The Cumberland Crier is a weekly newsletter distributed to community members and offers local news and information as well as an email service used in emergency situations for weather alerts, road closures, water main breaks, or health/safety concerns.
The Cumberland Farmers Market – In operation in Cumberland since 1996, The Cumberland Farmers Market provides the community with a high-quality array of locally raised and produced goods.
Cumberland Fair – Sponsored by the Cumberland Farmers Club, this town fair has been in existence for almost 150 years. In addition to traditional agricultural events showcasing the cooking, craft and animal husbandry skills of town residents, the Fair features harness racing on a 1/3-mile clay track.
Cumberland Town Parks include Broad Cove Reserve, Twin Brook Recreation Area, The Town Forest, Rines Forest and Knight’s Pond, with combined trails that extend over 10 miles.
Val Halla Golf & Recreation Center – This 18-hole professional course has been recognized as the “Best Municipal Course” in Maine by Golf Digest and the “Best Value in Maine” by the New England Golf Guide. It houses the home of the Maine State Golf Association as well as a full-service restaurant, Rachel’s on the Green. The tennis courts are free of charge and open to the public.
Chebeague & Cumberland Land Trust – a non-profit land conservation organization that has conserved nearly 900 acres since 1988. Many of these properties are open to the public for recreation and enjoyment.
“Cumberland County has amazing beautiful natural parks, trails, islands. We love the culture of Portland and the medical facilities are excellent.”

John began to fulfill his dream with the construction of the Main Lodge and the first twenty OceanView at Falmouth Cottages in 1986. Honoring the natural world and serving the interests of the greater community have always been strong priorities for John: he was awarded the Governor’s Award for Business Excellence by Governor Baldacci in 2004, the Environmental Leadership Award from the Institute for Family-Owned Business in 2017 and was recognized at the 2017 eco-Excellence Awards for Business Leadership (top winner).
John later brought the care continuum concept to Topsham, where he established both The Highlands and Highland Green, exceptional communities that offer exceptional recreational and care amenities.
In 2008, John’s son, Chris Wasileski, started working with his father, primarily on project management. Bringing a background in Political Science with a focus on Environmental Politics, Energy Policy, and National Security, Chris led the team that received the 2014 MEREDA Notable Project award for the Falmouth Schools Redevelopment project at OceanView. His research and interests have led to a focus on clean energy and energy efficiency.
After over 35 years, this Maine-owned and managed family business has branched out with Cumberland Crossing by OceanView, a satellite community of custom-built, cottages only 5.5 miles north of the main Falmouth campus. Offering green design and priority access to Falmouth House Assisted Living and Legacy Memory Care at OceanView, Cumberland Crossing residents enjoy a beautiful, rural setting at the center of Cumberland, with close proximity to the ocean and the many cultural opportunities of Portland, Maine’s largest city.
