Something without all of the rendered tiles and the like, just basic grids with walls, doors, secret doors, etc.

Hex Map Brushes for GIMP (http://inkwellideas.com/2007/hexmaps.shtml)

It works with the free and fairly powerful GIMP image editing program, but that's a good thing to learn if you haven't already tried it.
