Aleza Lake is a community located on the southwest end of Hansard Lake, west of Upper Fraser, British Columbia. The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway built a station here in 1914. The Aleza Lake Post Office opened 1 June 1915 with J.A. Davidson as postmaster; it closed 30 September 1970.
Aleza Lake was named by G.U. Ryley, Land Commissioner, in July 1913, for an old Indian woman who lived in the area.

Aleza Lake was the home of a small Catholic Church, that was active from 1949 to 1999. In 2004 the current owners/residents of Hutton, British Columbia, dismantled this church, which was by then on the verge of caving in. It has since been rebuilt in Hutton, which is approximately 30 km East of Aleza Lake.
