I vote for wood, it's natural, warm , rustic and doesn't look fake and artificial. It's cost effective compared to the composites. If you pay attention to the coatings you use to protect the wood you can get years of service. I have a pier, dock, floating dock that still has the original wood that was installed in 1997. We don't know how long the composites and others will last as there is no long history of service with these materials. It's kind of like buying hope. With wood being 1/4 the price of the other materials, I would go with wood. My $.02 worth. Good luck with your project.
