Aylesford Lake is a natural, fresh-water, dystrophic lake located in Kings County, Nova Scotia, Canada, and is part of the Gaspereau Watershed. The lake encompasses approximately 190 hectares, and is surrounded by the South Mountain Rolling Plain area. Much of the lake is privately owned, making it a major recreational area for the Annapolis Valley.
