I am sure the flu doesn't spread like wildfire there in January.

What kind of entertainment ?

room and park for the day you check in and all day the day you leave.

food is extra. as are the other activities. you can buy a "pup" pass or some other thing for like $60 that has a dozen non-water park activities on it.

Go to Pierce's Pitt BBQ just down the road from GWL. Ranked one of the best BBQs in the US recently! http://wtkr.com/2014/07/14/pierces-pitt-bbq-ranked-one-of-the-best-in-the-south/

It's fucking expensive.

I found the rooms to be fine. More than fine, actually. The food, on the other hand, was particularly intolerable. Expensive and not good. Service wasn't great either. We discovered IHOP at the shopping plaza down the street, which after a few meals at the WL felt like finding heaven on earth.

My other advice would be to focus on the water park activity and maybe the scavenger hunt with the wands (we didn't do this, but it looks like it takes some time to do). The other activities like bowling and the arcade get very expensive very quickly.
