Tsunogawa Station opened on 25 October 1934 when the Railway Ministry extended the Takayama Main Line from Hida-Osaka to Sakaue, beginning combined passenger and freight operations. Freight handling ended on 20 April 1973 and parcel handling on 1 February 1984; the station became simplified-outsourced on 1 April 1985. With JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 it joined JR Central. On 22 October 2004 the station was suspended due to damage from Typhoon No. 23, with substitute buses running between Takayama and Inotani. Service between Hida-Furukawa and Tsunogawa resumed on 1 October 2005, but trains terminated at Tsunogawa and a substitute bus continued from there. Service from Tsunogawa to Inotani resumed on 8 September 2007, completing the Takayama Main Line's full restoration; at the same time the track on the former down side was lifted and its platform closed, leaving the station effectively a single-track halt. In March 2011 the station was rebuilt as a simplified prefab structure and the disused footbridge was demolished.

Until the 2004 typhoon, Tsunogawa had been a simplified-outsourced station selling short-distance tickets; after service resumed in October 2005, tickets were sold instead from the conductor on board, and the station has not sold them since.
