Hawkeye (seems moved to github) can do that and more. You can see all the properties, fields, events and methods of a control. You can also edit the properties during runtime.
I recommend WinSpy++ because its much easier to get hold of then the original Spy++ which comes as part of the Windows SDK.
Just like Spy++ this only works at the Win32 level, of which WinForms is a thin/medium wrapper.
Spy++ allow you to see Window settings and messages, but that works at native (Win32) level, and will not show .NET information.
