Best CAD Program for Floor Plans (house,building,etc.)

[thriii]

What is the best option for mac? I know there is AutoCAD if i use bootcamp but I would rather stay in OSX.... is there anything just as good as AutoCAD or something that works extremely well for what I need? I'm going to be usin it for Floor Plans mostly.
