On the Banks of the Ayish Bayou stately “Cabin on the Bayou” which houses both the San Augustine Civic & Tourism Center and the San Augustine County Chamber of Commerce. As you approach from the West, the Court of Nine Flags proudly waves a warm welcome to visitors.

The “Cabin on the Bayou” contains two meeting rooms, Scout Room and a fully equipped kitchen.

The T.L.L. Temple Room is surrounded by gold-leaf paintings depicting history of San Augustine. The magnificent paintings are the work of famed Florida artist Salagandi. Over the mantel of the rock fireplace, is “Uncle Sam”, a splendid carving of the Great American Eagle in flight with his 6’10” wings. Noted East Texas Woodcarver, Joe Ladner of San Augustine, dedicated Uncle Sam to all Eagle Scouts from San Augustine.

Across the “Dog Trot” from the T. L. L. Temple Room is the Citizens Room beautifully decorated for club meetings, teas, or other activities.

The building has large covered porches and a wooden swing out back, making the Log Cabin a great venue for both indoor and outdoor events.  The rear porch opens onto an expansive grass lawn that slopes down to Ayish Bayou, crossed by an elevated boardwalk with a gazebo entrance.  The boardwalk extends over the Bayou and into Sante Fe Park with the charmingly rustic Ayish Hall, across from the historic Lewis Hotel.  A 1/3 mile nature trail winds through the woods, beginning at the small wooden bridge near the caboose and terminating at South Broadway, Highway 147 just south of Mission Dolores.
