The station opened on 27 October 1916 as Matoba Station (的場駅?) coinciding with the extension of the Tojo Railway line from Kawagoe to Sakado-machi (now Sakado Station). It was renamed Kasumigaseki on 14 January 1930 following the opening of the nearby Kasumigaseki Country Club in 1929. Later, in 1940, the former name was reassigned to Matoba Station on the Kawagoe Line.
