The Log Dogtrot House, near Kathleen, Georgia in Houston County, Georgia, was built in 1834. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1]

Also known as the Robert C. Bryan House, it is a dogtrot-style log house built of hand-hewn timbers. It was built by Hugh Denhard.[2]

It is located 0.5 mi. east of junction of Georgia State Route 247 and Story St., near Kathleen, Georgia.

The listing has a second contributing building,[1] which is a "one-room, wood-framed building that may have served as a kitchen. The building sits on stone piers (one has been replaced with concrete blocks), has a front-gabled corrugated metal roof, and is covered with weatherboarding. There is a brick flue on the interior of the building. At one time a covered breezeway connected this outbuilding with the rear of the house. An old hand-operated water siphon pump that may date from the turn of the century still stands in the yard."[2]
