After looking at the vagrant-kvm plugin I found a list of all the Vagrant plugins. This turns out to have vagrant-libvirt as a plugin. libvirt is a library used to control many different virtualization technologies. You can think of it as a common API for hypervisors like KVM/QEMU, Xen, LXC, OpenVZ, Virtualbox, VMware, and Hyper-V. From my experience with OpenStack, I quickly understood the power of this plugin.
In the README for vargrant-libvirt it explains the installation process very clearly. One of the things that makes vagrant really nice now is that you can setup simple puppet or chef provisioning to the instance that you create. It is just a simple configuration change to the Vagrantfile and you are on your way.
Here is the base Vagrantfile for libvirt.
