Default Garmin POI File for TV

Anyone have a Garmin POI file for all the rec centers, pools and golf courses for TV? I will be at TV for the month of December and will be using my Garmin GPS to find my way around.

I currently am in process of creating my own POI file to upload to the GPS but it is very time consuming trying to get the proper coordinates from sources such as Google Earth, Google Maps and Microsoft Maps. A lot of the addresses are not properly converted to coordinates. On one map every address I put in for Odell came up with the same coordinates. A true bug in Google Maps.
