Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Ōdai Station opened on 21 October 1958 as a station on the Japanese National Railways Tsugaru Line, located 35.0 km from the line's starting point at Aomori. With the privatisation of the JNR on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR East. In June 2019 management was reassigned to Aomori Station when neighbouring Kanita was outsourced. Service was suspended on 3 August 2022 after heavy rainfall damaged the line, with substitute buses introduced on 22 August. JR East and local governments later agreed to convert the suspended section beyond Kanita to bus and taxi service; the section, including Ōdai Station, will be permanently closed on 1 April 2027. The station has one ground-level side platform serving a single bidirectional track and is unattended.

About 300 metres from Ōdai Station in the direction of Aomori lies the de-facto boundary between the conventional Kaikyō Line and the Hokkaido Shinkansen — the Ōdai Branching Point, treated as part of Shin-Nakaoguni Signal Station — and the elevated shinkansen viaduct is visible from the platform.
