Ogikawa Station opened on 4 September 1917 as a Railway Board signal station and was upgraded to a station on 20 November 1926. The Nihon Kotsu Kanko Sha began handling station operations under contract on 1 October 1970. The original building was replaced via a temporary structure starting on 19 March 1986, and the new elevated station building entered service on 1 December 1986 — the first such building in what was then JNR's Niigata Railway Management District. It passed to JR East at the 1 April 1987 privatisation, and a dedicated ticket office (Midori-no-madoguchi) opened on 1 October 1991. Automatic ticket gates began operating on 16 December 2004, and Suica IC service became available on 21 January 2006. From 2014, accessibility works added lifts on the platforms and at the west entrance, all in service by March 2015.

When the new station building entered service on 1 December 1986, Ogikawa became the first station in what was then JNR's Niigata Railway Management District to have an overhead (bridge-type) station building.
