Matsuba Station (松葉駅, Matsuba-eki) is a railway station located in the city of Semboku, Akita Prefecture, Japan, operated by the third sector railway operator Akita Nairiku Jūkan Railway.

Matsuba Station is served by the Nariku Line, and is located 75.0 km from the terminus of the line at Takanosu Station.

The station consists of one side platform serving a single bi-directional track. The station is unattended. There is no station building, but only a shelter built on the platform.

Matsuba Station opened on 1 November 1971, as a station on the Japan National Railways (JNR) Kakunodate Line, serving the town of Nishiki, Akita. The line was privatized on 1 November 1986, becoming the Akita Nairiku Jūkan Railway.^[1] Matsuba Station was the terminal of the original southern section of the line, until the tracks were extended to Hitachinai on 1 April 1989.^[1]
