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

Ōtaki Station opened on 1 April 1930 as the initial terminus of the Japanese Government Railway Kihara Line in the castle town of Ōtaki, Chiba Prefecture. The line was extended to Fusamoto on 25 August 1933, demoting Ōtaki to an intermediate stop. Scheduled freight operations ended in October 1974, and the station passed to JR East with the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. On 24 March 1988 the line was transferred to the third-sector Isumi Railway and became the Isumi Line. The station was selected as one of the Kantō region's Top 100 Stations in 1998, and from September 2009 carries the naming-rights prefix "Dental-Support".

All Isumi Railway rolling stock is based at Ōtaki, and a polystyrene statue of Honda Tadakatsu — made for a TV Tokyo programme that set out to support the line — has stood beside the Platform 1 ticket gate since November 2008.
