Try this code its working fine for bootstrap 

function initialize() {
            var mapOptions = {
                center: new google.maps.LatLng(28.1823294, -82.352912),
                zoom: 9,
                mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID,
                scrollwheel: false,
                draggable: false,
                panControl: true,
                zoomControl: true,
                mapTypeControl: true,
                scaleControl: true,
                streetViewControl: true,
                overviewMapControl: true,
                rotateControl: true,
            };
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map-canvas"), mapOptions);
        }
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
#contactform .btn:hover {
  background: rgba(9,8,77,0.7);
}

#map-canvas {
  width: 100%;
  height: 300px;
  margin-bottom: 15px;
  border: 2px solid #fff;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
            
<div id="map-canvas"></div>
    
<!--Google Maps API-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyDnycWatbGyK6ldFqErjFtko1yeMclNUOA&amp;sensor=true"></script>

Please use correct API for google map, You get it from google map console.

Kudos to @ymakux comment "It's better to use built-in classes " I have been trawling SO for ages looking to get a Google Map to neatly fit into a bootstrap div and your answer is perfect! So for a newbie like me using maps with Bopotstrap utilizing the sample code supplied by google at https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/geolocation

Add divs as suggested by @ymakux just prior to map div similar to this:

<div class="embed-responsive embed-responsive-4by3">
<div id="map-container" class="embed-responsive-item">
<div id="map">
</div>
</div> 
</div>`

Your bootstrap elements are preventing your map from displaying.

<div>        
  <div style="border: 1px solid red;">
      <h4 class="h4">Find Us at Google Map</h4>               
  </div>
  <div id="map-container">
    <script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
  </div>     
</div>

A little CSS

#map-container{
    height: 500px;
    width: 500px;
}

Your map will display with that.

I would also not place your map calls in your HEAD tag. Let the page load, then have the maps load.

Once you get your map showing, slowly add in bootstrap components, as they can do some weird things with Google maps. Especially with grid layout. If you leave the grid layout on and you can not see the map, resize your browser (clicking the corner and dragging it) and you should be able to hit the sweet spot to display the map.
