The station consists of two opposed ground-level side platform connected by a footbridge.
On July 28, 1945, about 600 meters east of Daisenguchi Station, a train with two carriages prominently marked with red cross markings transporting wounded and sick soldiers with attendant nurses and medics, and nine passenger carriages with 1200 civilians was strafed and rocketed by three United States Navy F6F Hellcats, resulting in 44 deaths and 33 severe injuries.
With the privatization of the Japan National Railways (JNR) on April 1, 1987, the station came under the aegis of the West Japan Railway Company.
