Three (or more) large rocks, one at each end on one side and a third in the middle on the other side. Won't rot away like driven fenceposts, the right kind of rock looks lovely, and it adds another feature and potential habitat from a biodiversity point of view.

Cutting a flat side is a good idea.

The other thing u could do is dig a small trench/hollow and roll log in to it.

 

Effectively the same as idea as milling a flat surface will depend which s easier for u.

 

Can u get digger access to either dig hollow or roll logs into hollow or flat surface?

Bang 2 dozen 4” nails into the log at 45 degrees in a few lines along the top.
That’ll stop any saw goblins.
A pile of brash and rock on top of the log and if you’ve got it grass sods or turf over the top.
Can’t burn or move it.
Made loads of habitat piles in woodlands before like this.
(Often without the rocks).
