Surrounding area, including the Surikami River

Iizaka Onsen Station has two bay platforms serving a single bi-directional track. The station is staffed. Passengers generally disembark trains on the left-side platform and board from the right-side platform (left and right described when facing south (the direction of Fukushima Station)); however, during winter the left-side platform is used for both disembarking and boarding. The ground-level floor of the building contains a FamilyMart convenience store, a small vegetable shop, and a Fukushima Shinkin Bank ATM. The basement level contains the ticket gate and platforms, the station office, the waiting room, and toilets. Tickets are purchased via automated ticket machines, however tickets are checked manually by a station employee when a train's arrival/departure time is near. Generally, passengers are only allowed on the platforms when a train is present.
