Runway types

Trying to determine an ideal runway type for a private strip (approx 5000ft long) in the U.S.

What, in your opinion, would be the best type of runway to use? Pros.. cons?

Since it is private, my first opt would be grass/turf but there's the problem of it being wet and creating puddles. Aircraft attending would be some modern single engine Cessna's and DC-3's.
