That's an element for sure, I think a lot of it is because people work on the water so they want to have recreation in the woods. Lots of people have cabins in the middle of nowhere, accessible only by snowmobile or ATV, with nothing but a brook for drinking water as a weekend getaway instead of a cottage at the lake.
A friend of mine has a 2 bedroom "cottage" 3km off the TCH on a dirt road, literally in a hole. You can't see anything and only get sunlight for 5 hours a day.
