Shimosato Station opened on 18 July 1935 in the town of Nachikatsuura, Higashimuro District, Wakayama Prefecture. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West, which today operates it on the Kisei Main Line (Kinokuni Line). It lies 201.1 km from Kameyama and 20.9 km from Shingū. The layout is two opposed side platforms joined by a footbridge, and the station is unattended. Major nearby landmarks include the Shimosato Kofun (a National Historic Site) and Tamanoura Beach.

A short walk from the station, the Shimosato Kofun keyhole-shaped tumulus is designated as a National Historic Site.
