In the 1000 Islands area, the town docks have 3 hour time limits for free docking, so if you have a limit for the number of paid nights one could stay, and a limit for the amount of time one can stay for free during the day (this already exists), the problem solves itself. Have the overnight period start at 8 PM and end at 8 AM, stays during the other 12 hours of the day count toward the limited daytime stay.
