It is operated by the private transportation company Takamatsu-Kotohira Electric Railroad (Kotoden) and is designated station "S15".

Kotoden-Shido Station is the eastern terminus of the Kotoden Shido Line and is located 12.5 km from the opposing terminus of the line at Kawaramachi Station.

The station consists of a single deadheaded island platform, but basically only one track on the south side is used.

The north side is shortened by a connecting corridor from the platform to the night duty facility, so even with a 2-car train, the driver's cab door protrudes from the platform.

It was relocated to its current location and renamed Shido Ekimae Station (志度駅前駅) in May 1932.
