Console application or not, does not matter. You have a log mechanism which always works, event for Windows Services (which are much more difficult to debug then other applications):
This one is from .NET BCL: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/system.diagnostics.eventlog[^].

And this is the open-source alternative: Apache log4net:
