Similar to this question...

Console has a few standard locations where it will look for and index log files. The easiest thing you can do is add a symbolic link from the MAMP log files into one of the directories Console already uses, like ~/Library/Logs.

For example, my MAMP log files are located in /Applications/MAMP/logs. So I did:

cd ~/Library/Logs
ln -s /Applications/MAMP/logs/php_error.log .
ln -s /Applications/MAMP/logs/apache_access_log .

Hope that helps!
