Can anyone suggest "hidden gems" or "cool places" where you can simply drop anchor and enjoy swimming off the boat? I know there are several sandbars around, but I am hoping someone will know of quieter places.

Why ask?
I've been boating on Winni for the better part of 20 years and the best part is poking around the lake and finding those places you speak of.
But FYI there are not many places to drop anchor in shallow water that aren't usually known to others and pretty busy on any nice weekend.
One of your best tools is a Bizer chart. As for a GPS, great tool, but my belief is if you can't navigate the lake without a GPS then you don't belong out on the lake navigating with one. A GPS can act as a crutch and once you become dependent on it and for some reason it's gone?????
Enjoy your new boat.
