It is bordered on the North by Oswego County, on the West by Cayuga County, on the East by the Town of Clay and on the South, by the Town of Van Buren. It encompasses a portion of the Village of Baldwinsville and is surrounded by the Seneca River on the South and west and the Oswego River on the East.

A suburb of Syracuse, Lysander is easily accessible from Route 690 and Route 481. Included within the Town is Radisson, a planned unit development.
