History

The station opened on 15 July 1953 under Japanese National Railways. Its original name was Kawamura Station (川村駅, Kawamura eki). It was then transferred to JR Kyushu on 1 April 1987 following the privatization of JNR. It was then finally transferred to the Kumagawa Railway on 1 October 1989.

On 6 July 2020, all services at Yunomae Line, including this station were suspended due to severe damage caused by the rainfall, including the complete destruction of a large bridge over the Kuma River. On 20 September 2026, this station was relocated to a different location after the flood and hence renamed Sagara-Toshima.
