History
Yuze-Onsen Station opened on 17 October 1931 as Yuze Station on the privately owned Akita Railway, serving the village of Miyagawa. The line was nationalised on 1 June 1934 and absorbed into the JGR, later JNR. The station became unstaffed on 1 October 1971, transferred to JR East on 1 April 1987 at JNR privatisation, and was renamed Yuze-Onsen on 1 December 1995 to reflect the adjacent hot-spring resort. Simple consignment was withdrawn on 1 December 2021, fully unstaffing the station; toilets reopened in June 2022 under a leasing arrangement with Kazuno municipality.
Notes
An imperial special train brought Emperor Showa and Empress Kojun to the platform on 11 October 1961, while the station was still named Yuze.
