Ōmi-Takashima Station opened on 20 July 1974 as part of Japan National Railway's Kosei Line, on the western shore of Lake Biwa in Takashima, Shiga Prefecture. It became part of the West Japan Railway Company (JR West) at the 1 April 1987 privatization. ICOCA acceptance arrived on 21 October 2006 through a dedicated simple gate. Rapid trains began stopping at the station from the 12 March 2011 timetable revision. Station numbering as JR-B17 was introduced on 17 March 2018. The staffed ticket window closed on 31 July 2025, after which the elevated station, with its two opposing side platforms above the station building, became unstaffed throughout the day.

A roughly ten-metre Gulliver statue, reproducing the scene in which Gulliver captures an enemy fleet, stands in the rotary on the east side of Ōmi-Takashima Station, in an area known as Takashima Station-mae Gulliver Märchen Square; the station is also the nearest one to the Gulliver Youth Travel Village.
