The station was opened in 1870 by the Callander & Oban Railway as Lochearnhead. The station was renamed Balquhidder in 1904 when it was relocated slightly to the south when it became a junction with the Lochearnhead, St Fillans & Comrie Railway. The station had a goods yard and a crossing loop for the line, the platforms being either side of the loop. The station was later operated by the Caledonian Railway.
The line to Crieff was closed in 1951. The station and Callander & Oban Railway was closed in 1965.
