Myōkō-Kōgen Station opened on 1 May 1888 as Taguchi Station, on the government-built Sekiyama-to-Nagano section of the Shinetsu Line. It was renamed Myōkō-Kōgen on 1 October 1969, and at the JNR privatisation of 1 April 1987 it passed to JR East. On 14 March 2015, when the Hokuriku Shinkansen extension from Nagano to Kanazawa opened, JR East transferred the parallel conventional line to two third-sector operators: the section south of the station became Shinano Railway's Kita-Shinano Line, and the section north became Echigo Tokimeki Railway's Myōkō Haneuma Line. The station is now the company boundary, jointly used and managed by Echigo Tokimeki Railway.

In 1938 the station — then called Taguchi — loaded fifty freight cars with snow and dispatched them to Tokyo so a ski-jump ramp could be built at Korakuen Stadium for the first All-Japan Selected Ski-Jump Tokyo tournament.
