The best solution I've found today (2017) is to use Homebrew and Cask to install osxfuse and sshfs:

brew install --cask osxfuse
brew install sshfs

And then:

It works! :-)

The best solution I've found today (2017) is to use Homebrew and Cask to install osxfuse and sshfs. Note that Homebrew core deprecated all FUSE-related formulae in 2020 so you need to install sshfs from a tap:

brew install gromgit/fuse/sshfs-mac

And then:

sshfs username@hostname:/remote/directory/path /local/mount/point -ovolname=NAME
