We just had our driveway redone last year. Ours is about as long as yours, maybe 500 ft, and we went with simple hard packed gravel base. The paving company said it's the same layer they put down under asphalt and that we could have them come back in a year for the top coat.
We're 20 mi outside of Boston and get some snow. The plowman is careful not to dig too far down. It holds up pretty well. By the time lots of snow sticks deep the driveway is usually frozen rock hard and the plow doesn't harm it much.
We like that it adds a rural charm to our property which is only just outside of Boston.
