Shimogōri Station was opened on April 20, 1937. It was closed in 1944 due to World War II, but reopened in January 1947, but as utilization was very low, it closed again until April 1, 1956. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987.

Shimogōri Station has a single side platform serving bidirectional traffic. The platform is short, and can only handle trains with a length of three carriages or less. The station is unattended.
