A post office was first established at Rapelje in 1913. Originally the town was named Lake Basin, but the name was changed to Rapelje (after a Northern Pacific Railway executive) in 1917. A railroad destination point, Rapelje developed into a reasonable town with a number of grain elevators, a school district, an evangelical church, and a main street that was originally intended to be developed into a boulevard. When agricultural industry began to decline, the railroad pulled out of Rapelje and the town began falling into decline as well, losing much of its regional importance. The town still serves as a small hub by providing basic services to surrounding areas.
