History
Ona Station opened on 1 December 1936 as a stop on the Japan National Railways Futamata West Line in what is now Hamamatsu, Shizuoka. Scheduled freight handling was discontinued in August 1962, parcel handling ended in June 1970, and the station became unstaffed at the same time. On 15 March 1987 the line was transferred from JNR to the third-sector Tenryu Hamanako Railroad. In August 2022 the operator of a nearby hotel acquired naming rights, adding the subtitle "Lakeside Mikkabi-onsen Listel" through March 2025. The station has a single side platform on an embankment and an unstaffed two-story building.

Notes
The station's restroom is built to look like an oversized fishing creel with an eel — a specialty of nearby Lake Hamana — peeking out of it.
