The station is served by the Sasaguri Line and is located 7.7 km from the starting point of the line at Yoshizuka.[2] The station is sometimes depicted on maps and timetables as part of the Fukuhoku Yutaka Line, of which the Sasaguri Line is a component.
The station consists of two side platforms serving two tracks. The station building houses a waiting area and s staffed ticket window. Access to the opposite side platform is by means of a covered footbridge. A bike shed is provided outside the station.[2][3]
Management of the station has been outsourced to the JR Kyushu Tetsudou Eigyou Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of JR Kyushu specialising in station services. It staffs the ticket window which is equipped with a POS machine but without a Midori no Madoguchi facility.[4][5]

The station was opened by Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 9 March 1987 as an additional temporary stop on the existing Sasaguri Line track. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, JR Kyushu took over control of the station and upgraded it to a full station.[6][7]
In fiscal 2016, the station was used by an average of 1,374 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 128th among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[8]
