About the host
Hosted by Preston Johnson
I work as a firefighter and landscaper on my days off. I live with my amazing wife in Gholson on a property located on the river. Most of our free time is spent walking down the river and nature trail, fishing, playing pickleball or ping pong, and relaxing beside a campfire. We love to get to know people and help in any way we can. We believe God has blessed us with a beautiful place to live and we want to use it to host people well.
