If you learn Eagle first, it's not that hard. I would highly suggest Eagle as it's the most common amongst hobbyist. When I installed Eagle for the first time, I had a schematic and a PCB finished in the same day.
There are tons of tutorials here for Eagle. There is also a few members here that are skilled enough to help you if you have any questions.
I think Sparkfun has the best tutorials:
SF Eagle Schematic Tutorial
SF Eagle Board Layout
SF Better PCBs in Eagle
There are tons more on Google.
There are 2 things that fustrate me about Eagle:
1) There are a ton of libraries that ship with Eagle. It is difficult to locate parts.
2) There is a search function, but it took me months to figure out there is a 'secret' way to search. If you search for a transistor for example, you put in 2N2222, and it comes up with some nonsense parts or not all the libraries with that part. Instead of searching for '2N2222', search with *. For example: 2N22*. The * acts like a wildcard. You can even put it at the beginning of the search term: *2N22*.
