History

Ōtaki-Onsen Station opened on 19 January 1915 as a stop on the privately built Akita Railway, serving the town of Jūnisho in Akita Prefecture. The line was nationalised on 1 June 1934, becoming part of the Japanese Government Railways and later the Japan National Railways. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 it joined JR East as a station on the Hanawa Line, 92.1 km from the line's terminus at Kōma. The station's wooden railway signals were removed in September 1999, and in December of the same year it was made unstaffed. It has a single island platform serving two tracks, connected to the station building by a level walkway across the rails.
