For more than a century since 1906, Verkamp's was the home and business of the Verkamp family. Their gift shop sold Grand Canyon souvenirs and Native American handicrafts. It was open as a store through September 17, 2008.

Verkamp's re-opened on November 26, 2008 as a visitor center and now hosts an information desk, bookstore, and exhibits about the pioneer history of Grand Canyon Village. It is open daily 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
