Yasoba Station opened on 27 January 1952 as an additional stop added to the existing Yosan Line, then operated by Japanese National Railways. It became a JR Shikoku station with the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 and was later assigned the number Y07. The station sits 18.6 km from Takamatsu and serves only local trains, including a handful of Dosan Line services that begin and end at Takamatsu despite Tadotsu being the Dosan Line's official starting point. Two opposed side platforms serve two tracks; the station is unstaffed, has no station building, and is accessed by ramps and an at-grade level crossing between platforms.

Before electrification was completed shortly before JR's launch, Yasoba was treated as little more than a flag stop, with most local trains running straight through; the down platform was a stack of wooden sleepers, and under the timetables in force until around 1980 it was impossible to reach Sanuki-Shioya from Yasoba within the same day, short as the distance is.
