Autodesk EAGLE (formerly CadSoft) has a free tier (EAGLE Free) and it's a pretty decent layout program! I made numerous layouts with the standard license when it was still owend by Cadsoft and I found it comparably easy to use. I found a lot of the EDA software had either a very steep learning curve at the start or catered to "professional" workflows such as having different persons that do the schematic and layout that don't matter to me at home. For example, Eagle offered forward-and-backward connection between schematic and layout for a long time, whereas Kicad didn't. Meaning if I made a change in the schematic, I had to jump through hoops to get a netlist change into my schematic. EAGLE was much more focused on the workflow of one person doing the schematic and layout, I felt. Much closer to "getting the PCB layout done", with an easy parts editor to create custom parts etc. The flipside is that it breaks down quickly when you have more than 2 layers, I think. I don't remember any easy tools to e.g. route waveguides or equalize pairs of differential tracks.

But these days, give Kicad a try. Since CERN poured resources into it, it became a very capable EDA tool.
