Nanae Station opened on 10 December 1902 as an intermediate stop in the first construction phase of the private Hokkaido Railway, which laid track from Hakodate to Hongō (today Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto). The line was nationalised on 1 July 1907, and the route was renamed the Hakodate Main Line on 12 October 1909. The station was a freight handler until 1981, when freight was withdrawn on 28 May 1981 and parcel service ended on 14 March 1985. Operations transferred to JR Hokkaido on 1 April 1987. Catenary electrification through Nanae was completed on 26 March 2016 in conjunction with the Hokkaido Shinkansen extension to Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto, and Kitaca IC card service began on 16 March 2024.

When a Hakodate–Nanae short-working service was introduced in October 1981, the trains ran for a time under the nickname "Local Ukiuki-gō."
