For TripCart.com, we used mainly manual work to geocode 1000's of locations. Tools that return Geocodes often give the closest access road, sometimes even the city center (if the address doesn't parse). I just find the address on Google Maps, then move to where I want (like the middle of the swimming pool in a spa) and right click to get directions. That gives me the LatLong. Works every time and fast. Can do 100 / hour for perfect Geocoding.
