It is officially located at 881 North Dee Road, and is 15.1 miles (24.3 km) from Ogilvie Transportation Center in Chicago.[3] In Metra's zone-based fare system, Dee Road is in zone 2. As of 2018[update], Dee Road is the 85th busiest of the 236 non-downtown stations in the Metra system, with an average of 594 weekday boardings.[2]

The station was rebuilt in 2006 as a replacement for the former station on the opposite side of Dee Road, built by the Chicago and North Western Railway in 1967.
