Matsugasaki Station (松ヶ崎駅 Matsugasaki-eki?) is a railway station on the Yamada Line in Matsusaka, Mie Prefecture, Japan, operated by the private railway operator Kintetsu Railway. Matsugasaki Station is 5.7 rail kilometers from the terminus of the Yamada Line at Ise-Nakagawa Station.

Matsugasaki Station has two opposed side platforms.

Matsugasaki Station opened on May 18, 1930 as Sangu-Matsue Station (参急松江駅 Sangu-Matsue-eki?) on the Sangu Express Electric Railway. On November 3, 1937 the station was rebuilt on a new location 300-meters closer towards Ise-Nakagawa Station, and renamed to its present name. On March 15, 1941, the Sangu Express Electric Railway merged with Osaka Electric Railway to become a station on Kansai Express Railway's Yamada Line. This line in turn was merged with the Nankai Electric Railway on June 1, 1944 to form Kintetsu.
