The blue-green lagoon is located a short walk down the Baldface Circle Trail from the trailhead parking lot, which is just off Route 113 in North Chatham, New Hampshire. You have to get to it from Maine because Route 113 swings in and out of Maine and New Hampshire for approximately 20 miles before you arrive at the trailhead parking lot.
