History
Ise-Kashiwazaki Station opened on 3 July 1927 as the temporary terminus of the Japanese Government Railways' Kisei-East Line; the line was extended on to Ōuchiyama on 13 November 1927, making the station an intermediate stop. After the war, the Kisei-East Line was renamed the Kisei Main Line on 15 July 1959. Freight handling ended on 15 October 1972, and the station was de-staffed and parcel handling discontinued on 21 December 1983. The station passed to JR Central on 1 April 1987 with the privatisation of JNR. The original station building was demolished and replaced by an improvised structure built from a scrapped boxcar; the present building was put up in 2009.

Notes
The station name comes from the village of Kashiwazaki, the merger of two settlements named Kashino and Saki; today the station building itself stands in Saki, while serving as the gateway to the larger Kashino hamlet to its northeast.
