Nishiura Station opened on 24 July 1936 when Mikawa Railway extended its line into Hōi District's Nishiura Village, today part of Gamagōri City. A small depot beside the station, used for steam locomotives and gasoline cars during the line's non-electrified era, closed in 1947 once the entire route was electrified. Freight handling ended in fiscal 1963 and the station became unstaffed on 1 June 1998. Until 28 January 2005 limited-express and express trains called here for tourists bound for Nishiura Onsen. The original station building was demolished in December 2022, and a new shelter designed by Yokohama National University students opened on 23 March 2024. Manaca cards are not accepted here.

The shelter built on the site of the demolished station building was selected through a 2023 design competition that the city of Gamagōri opened to students nationwide; its columns and rising beams are double-layered, and the underside of the roof is louvred so that light filters through like dappled sunlight.
