Explore South Windham, Maine, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for South Windham, Maine. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Maine or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to South Windham.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

South Windham bears the steady, persistent imprint of the Presumpscot River as it carves a path through the landscape, its currents dictating the slow rhythm of the valley. It lies 4.9 miles north-northwest of Westbrook, ME (from Westbrook, ME: bearing 327°T), and is situated 9.9 miles west-northwest of Portland. The terrain rises toward the slopes of Pleasant Ridge, where the earth holds a quiet, granite-bound stillness that defines the horizon. A short distance away, the cascading waters of Mallison Falls create a constant, low-frequency hum that resonates through the surrounding woods, while the basin of Shad Gully catches the autumn mist before it dissipates into the clear, sharp air. Within the boundaries of the Hawkes-Towpath Preserve, the land remains largely untamed, offering a sanctuary where the light at dusk turns the foliage into deep, muted shades of bronze and charcoal.
South Windham maintains an economy rooted in the legacy of its industrial waterways, balancing the heritage of milling with the quiet persistence of modern life. While the influence of the distant coastline is felt in the saline dampness that sometimes drifts inland toward Lower Bay, the character of the region remains firmly connected to its freshwater veins and the nearby expanse of Dundee Pond. Residents here navigate a landscape shaped by historical labor, where the remnants of old stone foundations still peek through the undergrowth, speaking to the generations who harnessed the river to power their livelihood. Even as the pace of life shifts, the collective identity of South Windham remains tethered to the physical resilience of the terrain, enduring through the long, cold winters with a stoic, unassuming grace.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
