Nobiru Station opened on 10 April 1928 as a station on the Miyagi Electric Railway, established after the company's first president, Yamamoto Toyoji, targeted the calm-water Susaki-hama coast and the Oku-Matsushima area for development as a seaside resort. It was renamed Tōhoku-Suma in October 1931 in homage to the Suma bathing beach in Kobe, Hyōgo Prefecture, then changed back to Nobiru when the line was nationalized on 1 May 1944. The tsunami of the 11 March 2011 Tōhoku earthquake flooded the ground floor of the station building and caused severe damage to the station grounds, and the station was closed indefinitely. The rebuilt station opened roughly 500 m inland on a 22 m high site on 30 May 2015.

The pre-tsunami station building was preserved and reopened on 1 October 2016 as the Higashi-Matsushima Earthquake Disaster Reconstruction Memorial Hall, with the ground floor used as an exchange space and the second floor showing panel displays and video on the disaster.
