Ōkama Station opened on 25 June 1921 as a station on the Hashiba Light Railway (later renamed the Hashiba Line in 1922 and reorganised as the Tazawako Line in 1966). With the privatization of the Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR East. The station building was rebuilt in March 2000, with a community centre completed alongside it at the same time. The station became fully unstaffed in April 2018 and adopted Suica in May 2023.

Akita Shinkansen trains bound for Tokyo stop on track 2 here in winter to have hot water sprayed on their undercarriages to melt accumulated snow before they enter the Tōhoku Shinkansen at Morioka, since debris breaking off at high speed could otherwise damage the train.
