The Onoda Railway was railway nationalized in 1943, at which time the station name was changed to Onodakō Station (小野田港駅). On 1 October 1947 the section from Onodako Station to Suzumeda Station was completed and the station relocated to its present site. With the privatization of the Japan National Railway (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the aegis of the West Japan railway Company (JR West).
