Day Trips with a Splash!
Just this new book and it looks really interesting, it lists a bunch of swimming holes in the Northeast. There is a book for the other parts of the country also. It was written by Pancho Doll yes that is his real name. The NE version covers fom ME down to WV and has some really cool looking swimming holes.
Just thought you all might be interested.

What's the name of the book? Or are you going to make me do a Google search for "Pancho Doll?"

There is an article on Poncho Doll in this past months NG Adventure mag. He's currently writing a guidebook on the SE. He's already done the SW and NW along with the one mentioned above.

The Haystacks, within two miles of the end of the Loyalsock Trail is a really sweet swimming hole.
