If I understand what you're trying to do, I think you need to edit your httpd.conf file (mine's in, e.g. c:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf) and edit around line 198:

<Directory />
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Since you have also edited httpd-vhosts.conf and enabled NameVirtualHost *:80 you should be ok to house your website's document root at, say, DocumentRoot "c:/wwwroot/mywebsite", remembering of course not to put a trailing forward slash on this path (as this seems to kill xampp for me anyway) and also to use forward slashes rather than backslashes, as you have done.

You windows hosts file should read then:

127.0.0.1 local.mywebsite.com

And your httpd-vhosts.conf file could therefore have e.g.:

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "c:/wwwroot/mywebsite"
ServerName local.mywebsite.com
</VirtualHost>
