vagrant-aws keep getting rsync error "The source and destination cannot both be remote."

Hi,

I am trying to provision a AWS box using below configuration through windows.

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
    config.vm.define :web do |web_config|
    web_config.vm.box = "dummy"
web_config.vm.box_url = "https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant-aws/raw/master/dummy.box"

web_config.vm.provider :aws do |aws|
    aws.access_key_id = ###
    aws.secret_access_key = ###
    aws.keypair_name = ###      
    aws.ssh_username = "ubuntu"
    aws.ssh_private_key_path = ###      
    aws.instance_type = "m1.small"
    aws.ami = "ami-7914170d"            
end
web_config.ssh.username = "ubuntu"  
  end

But there seems to be an issue with rsync. I keep getting this error:

Host path: C:/Project/vagrant/
Guest path: /vagrant
Error: The source and destination cannot both be remote.
rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1135) [receiver=3.0.6]

Is this running within Cygwin or something of the sort? I haven't tested this very well on Windows. Can you get me the VAGRANT_LOG=debug output as well?

Thanks for your quick response.

I tried that in both windows command prompt and Cygwin terminal. Same error. Below is the debug output:
