sshfs is indeed a handy way to access remote filesystems through ssh.
But I do not see any details on the CentOS wiki.  Here's a brief
instruction:

# yum install dkms-fuse fuse fuse-sshfs
# depmod -a ; modprobe fuse
$ mkdir localdir/
$ sshfs remoteuser@remotebox:/some/path localdir/

To unmount:

$ fusermount -u localdir/

Note that you do not have to be root to mount/umount using sshfs.

Another option is to use gftp.  After you start it, just select "SSH2"
instead of the default "FTP".  Then you will be connecting through ssh
(remote does not need ftp daemon running) and you get an mc-like
session quite easily.
