When the Pinjarra to Picton Junction railway was joined to Perth in 1894, North Dandalup, near where the river of that name crossed the railway, was noted as a stopping place.

Land for a school was set aside in 1899 and the school commenced operations in April 1900. A town hall and recreation ground were built in 1915. The town was finally gazetted in 1972, a year after work began on the construction of the nearby South Dandalup Dam. On October 28, 1994, the $50 million North Dandalup Dam was opened 6 km from the town.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=North Dandalup Dam )〕
