Then, due to the construction of facilities (including swimming pools) around the country, the place to swim came to be of less significance; consequently, the station was closed since the swimming areas were closed down in 1965, and nine years later the station was officially abolished.
その後、プールなどの施設が各地にでき、水泳場の意義も薄れたことから、1965年（昭和40年）の閉園と共に駅も休止され、9年後に正式廃止となった。
