Destination doesn't exist on TomTom...what do I do?

I want to use my TomTom to help me get down to Knoebel's Grove in Elysburg, PA soon...it's a very popular place in the area, but it doesn't seem to exist under destinations in Elysburg when I try to look it up. Plus it doesn't really have an address, as it only says on other sites that it's on Route 487.

Is there anyplace where i can get a map of the place and put it on my TomTom? Mapquest only has that option for OnStar, it seems.

Is there a way to view the map on the TomTom, select a point and mark it as a waypoint?

Yes, but the problem is I can't figure out exactly where this destination is on the map. I've never been a good map reader, and frankly moving the map around on my TomTom is rather slow and awkward.

Well, I found it in my Garmin Mapsource 2009. Coords are:

N40 52.684 W76 30.417

Try it as "Knoebels Grove" too. In Mapsource, there is no apostrophe.

Thanks! I put those coordinates in, and the spot read as an "Amusement Park" on my TomTom. I have since saved it as a POI.
