Samitagawa Station opened on 30 November 1983 as an infill stop on the Kintetsu Tawaramoto Line between Ikebe and Ōwada, in the town of Kawai, Nara Prefecture, near the Nishi-Yamato New Town. PiTaPa service began on 1 April 2007, and the station became fully unstaffed on 1 October 2011. It is a ground-level halt with a single track and one side platform shared by Shin-Ōji- and Nishi-Tawaramoto-bound trains, its station building sitting above the tracks and reached from footbridges on the north and south sides. Land for converting the layout into a two-platform passing station has been reserved but never used.

Land has been set aside to rebuild Samitagawa as a passing station with two side platforms and two tracks, but there is still no prospect of the conversion being carried out.
