Wrights Lake is a community in Annapolis, Nova Scotia, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Wrights Lake is located at 44.7233°N, 65.3731°W.

Wrights Lake rests in a fold of the Annapolis Valley, where the land rises gently from the fertile valley floor to meet a sprawling, quiet expanse of water. It lies 11.7 km east of Annapolis Royal, NS (from Annapolis Royal, NS: bearing 101°T), and is situated 8.1 km east-south-east of Moschelle. Ancient, weathered granite forms the bedrock, softened by centuries of moss and lichen, and the air here carries the clean, sharp scent of pine needles and damp earth, especially after a rain. Dense stands of spruce and fir crowd the shoreline, their dark branches reaching out over the water, broken only by the occasional sun-drenched clearing where wild blueberries might be found clinging to the rocky soil. The surface of Wrights Lake itself is often a mirror, reflecting the shifting sky in hues of bruised purple at dusk or a pale, watery blue on a still morning. This is a place where silence is a tangible presence, punctuated only by the cry of a distant loon or the rustle of unseen creatures in the undergrowth. The history of Wrights Lake is as deeply rooted as the trees that surround it, a story intertwined with the ebb and flow of human endeavour in this part of Nova Scotia. Long before European settlers arrived, the Mi'kmaq people knew these waters and lands, their presence a quiet echo in the ancient rhythms of the landscape. Later, the lake became a vital, if humble, resource for early pioneers, its waters offering sustenance and a passage through the dense forests. While not a hub of heavy industry, the surrounding lands once supported small-scale logging operations, the scent of woodsmoke a common perfume on the crisp autumn air. Today, the economy of the wider region is more diversified, drawing on agriculture and tourism, but the quiet character of Wrights Lake endures, a place where the past feels close, held in the deep stillness of the water and the enduring strength of the surrounding woods.
