I'm new to studying XFS file system type. I'm looking
to dump meta info for file system (including label,
UUID, create date, last mount date, last write date,
size of file system, etc.). I haven't found a way to
do this using an XFS tool. I see xfs_admin can print
label and UUID. But is there a tool to obtain the
creation date, last mount date, last write date, size
of FS, etc.?

Some of the metadata you request is not stored on the filesystem itself
(create date, mount date, etc) - although I've always thought that would
be a good idea, it's just never been done.
But you can use the xfs_db tool to explore all of the information that
-is- on disk. For starters:
xfs_db -r /dev/device
xfs_db> sb 0
xfs_db> p
will show you all the fields in the primary superblock.
